Enter the New Era of Reality Capture

In this episode of Digital Builder, host Eric Thomas sits down with Jeevan Kalanithi and Michael Fleischman, co-founders of OpenSpace, to explore how reality capture technology is transforming construction. Recorded live at Autodesk University in Nashville, the conversation traces the journey from early laser scanning to today’s AI-powered visual intelligence platforms—and what that means for builders on the ground.From reducing disputes and project risk to unlocking new possibilities with spatial AI, Jeevan and Michael share insights on how technology is giving teams “superpowers” rather than replacing experience. They also look ahead to the future of AI agents and robotics in construction.We discuss:The “three chapters” of reality capture—and why visual intelligence is the next frontierHow reality capture builds trust, speeds decisions, and lowers riskWhy today’s tech feels more Iron Man than TerminatorThe role of AI and spatial computing in shaping the job siteWhat AI agents could mean for productivity and the labor shortageDigital Builder is hosted by Eric Thomas of Autodesk.
